All Fine
Just want to provide a follow-up. I smeared the JB around the joining area of the housing as well as covering the crack on the rear side. 2.5 hour drive home without any issue. Thankfully a cool and wet day. A few areas into the city slowed down but didn’t stop. Not a drop, no boiling.
I guess caution should be considered about idling for 5 to 10 minutes after a long highway drive. The failure and the fix was easier than the time spent getting there. A reminder that one must be ready for unexpected failures with aged cars being run as if they were contemporary. It’s worth it to keep these on the road and out of museums.
